170: Chapter 170 Cheering her on angers Herriman

"That's fine." Sang Qing had no objections.

However, it was still uncertain whether the next step would be returning to Beast King City.

Song Zhen, Zhou Wanwan, and the others were keeping an eye on things at Beast King City. Development was currently stable, and there wasn't much need for her there.

She planned to stay outside for a while longer.

It just happened to be the spring season, so she could take the Little Cubs for a walk around.

Thinking this, she reached out to pat Little Five's head and instructed seriously, "Miao Miao, listen to Grandmother. There are many handsome brothers and beautiful sisters on the seabed to play with you. If you miss Mother and Father, ask Grandmother to contact us, okay?"

"Okay!" Sang Miao let out a squeak in her milky voice and leaned forward to give her a kiss.

Before leaving, she didn't forget to look longingly at Little Six.

Seeing his sister about to leave, Little Six suddenly became anxious and hurriedly tried to chase after her.

Herman quickly caught and held him.

"Sister, sister!" He had never been separated from his sister since he was small.

Seeing her about to leave, he immediately became reluctant.

He didn't quite understand what separation was, but he wanted to follow his sister forever.

Little Six's small face fell, and mist rose in his eyes as if he were about to cry.

Little Five knitted her brows and said in a precocious tone, "Brother, be good."

It definitely wasn't that she didn't like him anymore; she just wanted to go to the seabed to see if the handsome brothers and beautiful sisters Mother mentioned were actually beautiful.

"Waaah~" As soon as Sang Miao disappeared beneath the sea surface, Little Six could no longer hold it in and began to wail.

My sister... don't go...

Herman was caught between laughter and tears, and felt a bit jealous. "If I had known, it would have been better if your Mother had birthed you as a fish, so you wouldn't have to be separated from your sister."

"Herman, it's a Jiao, not a fish. Are you looking for a beating?" Hearing Herman's words, Fu Ning glared in anger and shook his clenched fist as a warning.

Who's a fish? Who's a fish?

Qing Qing said it was a term of endearment, so why did this flashy fox Herman think he could say it too?

Herman wasn't afraid of him at all. He chuckled and stuffed Little Six into his arms. "Whatever you are, here, take him."

This cub was just like Fu Ning had birthed him himself; Herman couldn't coax him at all.

When they returned to Beast King City, he would have Qing Qing give him a new one, preferably a little female.

That way, Fu Ning wouldn't be able to show off in front of him every day.

Holding the crying Little Six, Fu Ning grinned and didn't refuse, immediately starting to soothe the child.

Suddenly, a slight tremor came from the ground.

Xuan Xiao and Sa Yu reacted the fastest, immediately looking toward the forest. One transformed into his Beast Form, while the other took out a Crossbow.

Over two years of traveling had sharpened their vigilance to the extreme.

They knew just by listening that there were Dinosaurs nearby.

Chi Yu and Herman quickly gathered the playing Little Cubs together to prevent them from running off and being chased by Dinosaurs again.

Aniel protected Sang Qing, looking around nervously.

This was the last continent they had reached, so the Dinosaurs here might be even more ferocious than those on other continents.

Because Dinosaurs had long lifespans and grew rapidly, their strength would be relatively more brutal without any restrictions.

Sang Qing stepped over to the Little Cubs.

The five little ones all had curious faces, having long since shed their childhood fear of Dinosaurs. They were itching to go up and fight a Dinosaur themselves.

What Sang Qing feared was them rushing out without listening to orders.

It happened six months ago; while Xuan Xiao and the others were killing Dinosaurs, Fu Ning took his eyes off them for a moment, and the six little ones sneaked out, nearly getting wiped out by the Dinosaurs.

If they were older, Sang Qing might allow them to follow their Father, but right now they weren't even as high as her knees. These tiny Cubs wanting to kill Dinosaurs almost made her die of laughter.

Several Dinosaurs emerged from the woods together, their mouths full of grim, sharp teeth carrying a bloody scent. They roared and charged, their massive eyes emitting a dark, sinister light that looked extremely terrifying.

But these were neither Velociraptors nor Tyrannosaurus Rexes.

Sang Qing watched as several Dinosaurs with massive bodies and swift movements approached. Their forelimbs had evolved to assist in capturing prey, their hind limbs were sturdy and powerful, their tails were relatively short, and their back spines had prominent protrusions. Her gaze paused.

This was likely a species of Dinosaur unique to this forest; she hadn't seen them before.

She tapped on the scan function.

[Scan complete: Mutant Spinosaurus. Omnivorous Dinosaur, excels at ambushes and sprinting. Estimated value: 400 points. Living specimens cannot be listed.]

Oh? This Dinosaur is even more valuable than a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Sang Qing's eyes immediately went to the points section.

Over the past two years, killing Dinosaurs and mining minerals had allowed her wealth to break new records.

However, she had also spent a lot along the way. Between saving beastmen, helping restore the ecosystem, and building Beast God Temples, she currently had over 500,000 points remaining.

Despite having so many points, she would never look down on small gains.

Besides, four hundred points wasn't exactly a small gain; it was a decent haul.

Seeing this, Chi Yu entrusted the Little Cubs to Herman and also transformed into his Beast Form.

Through two years of experience, Chi Yu had become much stronger. Not only had his witchcraft improved significantly, but his combat level had also reached a new stage.

Sa Yu and Xuan Xiao had long since broken through to the ninth rank. Chi Yu was only one step away, and his strength wasn't much inferior to theirs.

Herman's eyes widened, and he started jumping in frustration. "No, let me go!"

He hadn't fought a Dinosaur in a long time. This guy Chi Yu should at least give him a chance.

He was also close to breaking through to the ninth rank and had been waiting to reach this continent to kill Dinosaurs and break through his bottleneck.

As for Fu Ning, he was just slacking off.

Although he had reached the ninth rank early on, facing ferocious Dinosaurs, he was just a poor little fish and couldn't win.

If they were in the water, he could send a sea beast of this size flying with a single flick of his tail.

But who could help it? They weren't in the water.

He might as well be a good cub-sitting nanny-dad.

Sang Qing stood guard in front of the Little Cubs, her eyes fixed on Chi Yu and the others.

The Dinosaurs roared and hissed, sharp claws flying. Xuan Xiao wasn't intimidated at all. His powerful aura flared as he lunged forward with a strangling move, easily snapping the neck of one of the Dinosaurs.

"Father, go for it!"

"Father is so amazing, so amazing!"

"Father Xuan Xiao, go!"

"Father, get them! Kill these big bad guys!"

The Little Cubs were dancing with excitement, shouting and constantly cheering them on.

Sang Qing found it amusing.

However, at that moment, another seven or eight Dinosaurs emerged from the woods.

In the sky, Chi Yu's pupils shrank. He immediately gave up assisting Xuan Xiao and flew over quickly.

"Be careful, Qing Qing!"

Chi Yu called out a warning, only to see Aniel and Herman quickly transform into their Beast Forms and charge toward the Dinosaurs.

Without hesitation, Sang Qing also activated her vines, first entangling the legs of the group of Dinosaurs.

Chi Yu breathed a slight sigh of relief and arrived above Aniel's head, helping him join the fray.

Aniel and Herman had not yet broken through to the ninth rank, and their Beast Forms weren't even half the size of the Dinosaurs. Combined with being outnumbered, they certainly wouldn't be a match alone.

Fortunately, they had Sang Qing's help.

Xuan Xiao and Sa Yu also quickly finished off the remaining two Dinosaurs and ran over.

Originally, they had planned to take their time, but once it involved the safety of their mate and Cubs, they lost interest in playing around.

Little Four and Little Six exchanged a glance and shared a mischievous grin. Mimicking their Mother's methods, they began to activate their Supernatural Ability.

Since they turned two, Sang Qing hadn't restricted them much from using their Supernatural Ability.

They could now control the extent of their ability quite well, knowing when to use it and when to stop.

The only thing was, the vines they grew were too thin, not even a fifth of the size of their Mother's.

Forget about binding Dinosaurs; they could barely manage to bind their own older brothers and sisters.

Sang Ling tugged at Fu Ning's pant leg, her large eyes full of curiosity. "Father, why can't I make vines appear?"

Fu Ning raised an eyebrow, knelt down to pat her head, and explained kindly, "Then why do you have wings, Cub, while your brothers don't?"

That seemed to make sense.

Sang Ling felt that having wings was absolutely cool.

It seemed like not being able to grow vines was no big deal.

Sang Qing smiled slightly, thinking this explanation was very reasonable.

There was nothing she could do; she couldn't be blamed. Who knew Little Four and the others would inherit her Supernatural Ability? She couldn't exactly stuff Little Ling and the others back to be reborn.

Two Dinosaurs crashed to the ground. Aniel rolled to dodge an attack from another Dinosaur and bit down on its forelimb.

Only three Dinosaurs were left struggling. A thick scent of blood floated in the air. Just as Sang Qing was about to let go and put the dead Dinosaurs up for sale in the Mall, another commotion came from not far away in the woods.

Destroyed trees fell to both sides, and dust flew into the air as something approached aggressively. Sang Qing looked up, her brow slightly furrowed.

"Be careful, more Dinosaurs are coming."

Judging by the sound, there were quite a few.

Calling out to her mates, she retreated to the Little Cubs' side. "Alright, stop playing. Stay with your Fathers. No running around, do you hear me?"

Feeling the frequency of the ground's tremors, Sang Qing felt the upcoming scene would definitely be a bit chaotic.

She wasn't worried about anything else, only that they might suddenly run off again.

Not a single one of her Cubs made her feel at ease.

Boom~

A large tree fell with a crash, and over a dozen adult Dinosaurs swarmed out from the forest, causing the ground to tremble even more.

They were all Spinosauruses, but they didn't look to be in good condition, seemingly due to a lack of food.

Sang Qing was a bit worried. With so many Dinosaurs, wouldn't the beastmen in this forest be... Sa Yu flew in the air, looking at the Dinosaurs that had yet to emerge from the woods. His sharp golden eyes grew a bit colder.

Why are there so many Dinosaurs?

Could it be that the Dinosaurs on this continent have multiplied to such an exaggerated extent?

His guess coincided exactly with Sang Qing's.

"Xuan Xiao, Aniel, be careful of the woods."

After giving the warning, Sa Yu fiercely attacked a Dinosaur.

Sang Qing certainly wouldn't just stand there waiting for them to attack; she quickly activated her vines to bind the Dinosaurs.

A thick smell of blood filled the air as another group of Dinosaurs swarmed out of the woods.

The Little Cubs' expressions changed as they tightly hugged Fu Ning's thighs.

Little Four and Little Six stopped; they realized their Supernatural Ability was too weak to be of any use.

Aniel was knocked back two steps by a Dinosaur, a bit of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

Sang Qing's gaze turned cold as she quickly used her Supernatural Ability to pull him back, then blocked the attacking Dinosaurs.

With her Supernatural Ability, her mindset remained fairly steady.

Although there were more and more Dinosaurs, her Supernatural Ability hadn't even been used to a tenth of its capacity; it was more than enough to handle them.

The Dinosaurs entangled by Sang Qing struggled and roared.

Sang Qing realized the other Dinosaurs were likely attracted by their cries, so she directly bound their mouths.

There were about thirty Dinosaurs before them, their eyes staring covetously at Sang Qing and the Cubs, as if some delicious food were tempting them.

Sang Qing bound their bodies, making it impossible for them to move forward.

Xuan Xiao also stopped using his raw strength and took out a weapon instead.

Sang Qing had previously equipped him with a hammer made of a special material, which was perfect for giving the Dinosaurs a wake-up call.

Sa Yu and Chi Yu also changed their combat style.

Sa Yu stepped on Chi Yu's back, transformed into his beastman form, and attacked with a Crossbow.

Mainly because these Dinosaurs had defensive spines on their backs, making it inconvenient for the two Flying Beasts to attack with claws; moreover, the Dinosaurs were too heavy to be picked up and dropped to their deaths.

The family fought methodically, and the Little Cubs watched in a daze.

Even Fu Ning, who couldn't participate, felt his blood boiling.

Aniel rushed forward indignantly to fight alongside Herman.

Once, they had also trusted each other with their backs like this.

Several roars echoed from the distant forest, making Sang Qing's eyes twitch.

There couldn't be more Dinosaurs coming, right?

They needed to wrap this up quickly and leave immediately.

Sang Qing told Fu Ning to protect the Little Cubs well as she summoned more vines to entangle the enemies, then went to collect the other Dinosaur corpses.

These are all points; they can't be wasted.

"Let's go."

After collecting all the Dinosaur corpses, Sang Qing supported the injured Aniel, glanced at the noisy forest, and called out to the other beasts.

It's better to leave first; it feels like the forest is full of Dinosaurs.

She didn't know how many there were; they had already killed forty or fifty, yet it seemed endless.

Sang Qing furrowed her brows and calmly supported Aniel as they walked along the beach.

However, they didn't expect this continent to be crawling with Dinosaurs everywhere.

No matter how far they walked along the beach, Dinosaurs would emerge from the woods to launch sneak attacks.

She was numb to it!

Looking at her mates, whose hands were covered in blood, Sang Qing thought for a moment and decided not to enter the forest for now.

She rented a ship, intending to live on it temporarily.

The ship was not far from the beach, but it was at a depth just enough to intercept any Dinosaurs trying to approach.

Sang Qing led them onto the ship.

Looking at the dense swarm of Dinosaurs on the shore, Sang Qing rubbed the goosebumps on her arms and bared her teeth slightly.

How can there be so many Dinosaurs?

Inside the cabin, Sang Qing helped Aniel lie down and began treating his wounds.

"Sister, it hurts~" Aniel leaned his head on Sang Qing's shoulder; he had injuries on both his arms and legs.

Sang Qing pulled over a quilt to cover a certain part of him, her eyes twitching.

"Don't move around."

She took out the medical kit, arranged the items, and began debriding his wounds with tools.

Aniel looked cowering and tried to burrow into her embrace out of fear.

Sang Qing held his head and made him lie still.

Giving him a warning look, Sang Qing raised her palm high.

Aniel bit his lip and closed his eyes like a little green tea, leaning his face toward her.

If she wanted to hit him, then hit him; to him, being hit was a sign of affection and being scolded was a sign of love. If his sister didn't hit him, he'd actually be unhappy.

Sang Qing pinched his face and said gloomily, "Lie down quickly and stop acting up. Herman is also injured, and I still have to go see him."

Chi Yu was treating Herman's wounds; she didn't know how badly Herman was hurt and was still worried about him.

Fine.

Aniel immediately became serious and obediently let her bandage him.

After treating the wounds and settling Aniel down to sleep, Sang Qing stood up and walked out.

The Little Cubs had also fallen asleep under Fu Ning's care.

Sang Qing checked on her mates one by one; Xuan Xiao and Sa Yu were fine, and Chi Yu walked out after finishing Herman's treatment.

The two met in the corridor.

Chi Yu was covered in blood, so Sang Qing pulled him over to check him from head to toe.

Upon entering Chi Yu's room, Sang Qing urged him to take a shower while she bought him two new sets of clothes.

Chi Yu's clothes were bloody and torn; they were no longer wearable.

Chi Yu took off his shirt, revealing his firm and lean upper body, with spots of blood on his well-defined abs.

He looked at his mate sitting by the bed, bent down, and picked her up.

"Eh?" Sang Qing was startled and instinctively hooked her arms around his shoulders, her bright eyes widening slightly. "What are you doing?"

He was interrupting her clothes shopping.

The Mall had released new styles: small leather jackets, white shirts, suit pants... *hiss*.

Chi Yu would definitely look good in them.

He seemed to have grown a bit taller recently, and the clothes she bought before were getting small. Sang Qing never thought that raising a mate would be like raising a cub, even having to worry about his height.

Chi Yu lowered his head to kiss her tenderly and walked straight toward the bathroom.

What else could he be doing? Of course it was... "Help me bathe..."

Sang Qing pursed her lips, feeling his warm breath on her face. "Are you still a child? Wash yourself; I'm buying clothes for you."

"I'm not wearing them!" Chi Yu placed her on the bathroom counter, his moist lips wandering down from the tip of her ear, his gaze burning.

Sang Qing burst out laughing. "Are you sure?"

Not sure!

...After a long time, Chi Yu finally walked out carrying Sang Qing.

Sang Qing had recently cut her hair short; the neat and soft short hair made her look valiant and spirited, with an indescribable playful brightness.

Chi Yu placed her on his lap and put a jacket on her. "Qing Qing, remember, you still owe me five times. You must make it up to me together next time."

A black line crossed Sang Qing's forehead, and she raised her hand slightly. "I've already indulged your nonsense; what more do you want?"

Don't push your luck.

After getting dressed, she pinched his chin with a helpless look.

What kind of decent beast remembers the number of times they've mated? How embarrassing.

Chi Yu ruffled her hair, his tone slow and proud. "Can't you indulge me? I am your first mate, after all."

If he hadn't considered that she still needed to visit Herman, this whole afternoon would have belonged to him.

Chi Yu pouted, somewhat dissatisfied.

Sang Qing stood up, her legs feeling weak and her face flushing red.

Chi Yu's heart fluttered; he hugged her waist and nuzzled into her embrace, his voice clingy. "Don't go, okay, Qing Qing?"

Sang Qing patted his head, leaned down, and kissed his thin lips.

Chi Yu's eyes darkened as he held her tightly and refused to let go, deepening the kiss.

Laughter came from the deck. Sang Qing walked into Herman's room and saw him wrapped up like a zongzi on the bed; she first went to the balcony to take a look.

It turned out Fu Ning and Sa Yu were playing in the water with the Little Cubs.

They're already awake?

She thought not much time had passed.

How is this guy Chi Yu's stamina getting longer and longer?

The sunlight didn't reach the cabin, but the light was bright, the sea surface shimmered, and the stationary ship was very stable.

After admiring the scenery for a while, Sang Qing withdrew her gaze and climbed onto the bed.

"Herman."

She tugged at the quilt, but she couldn't pull it open at all.

Childish.

But it was indeed her fault; she shouldn't have been hooked by Chi Yu and failed to come check on him in time.

Unable to pull the quilt open, Sang Qing had no choice but to reach her hand inside and grope around randomly.

Hiss!

Slightly sharp teeth bit her wrist, causing Sang Qing to let out a low cry.

"Herman..."

She had forgotten that foxes bite too.

It hurts, hurts, hurts!

Sang Qing's face almost contorted in pain.

In the next second, Sang Qing was dragged into the quilt by a hand, and a wave of heat rushed over her.

In the warm bed, a pair of crimson eyes were exceptionally clear, just like a fierce beast that hadn't eaten for three days and nights.

She was bitten on the shoulder again, and the pain brought tears to Sang Qing's eyes, but she didn't make a sound.

Herman slowly let go, staring at her with a confused look, and licked the tears off her face with his tongue.

"Why aren't you crying out in pain?"

Herman pressed down on her, looking at the teeth marks on her shoulder; the resentment in his heart dissipated slightly.

Anger and heartache can switch in an instant.

Seeing the teeth marks that were almost bleeding, he regretted it again.

Why did I bite so deep?

Sang Qing took a breath, her eyes full of apology. "Who told me to make you angry?"

"You have the nerve to say that," Herman said, nearly exploding with anger.

In the dimness of the quilt, Herman lowered his head and bit her chin again.
